This building is on of the finest examples of Victorian Gothic style and was built as a replacement for its 15th Century predecessor, which had fallen into disrepair. It was consecrated and reopened by Bishop James Fraser (Bishop of Manchester, 1870-1885) on St Peter’s Day, 29 June 1871. The cost (£45000) was met by Peter Ormrod (1795-1875), a wealthy cotton manufacturer and banker, and was designed by the Lancaster architect, E J Paley of Paley & Austin.
